Perimenopause Management

Perimenopause marks the transitional phase leading up to menopause, the point when a woman’s ovaries gradually begin to produce less estrogen. This period typically starts in a woman’s 40s but can begin as early as the mid-30s. During perimenopause, menstrual cycles may become irregular, and women may start experiencing symptoms like hot flashes, sleep disturbances, mood swings, and changes in sexual function. These changes are a natural part of aging as the body prepares to eventually enter menopause, where menstrual periods cease entirely.
